Unistore, Snowflake’s newest and most impactful workload yet, was announced during the Opening Keynote at Snowflake Summit on June 14th. 

Technology media across the globe and organisations working with data everywhere have shared the excitement that was palpable at our conference. Unistore changes the game for the entire industry. How we store, manage, and use data, is redefined by this new workload.

What exactly is Unistore and why is it so revolutionary?

Unistore allows organisations to store and use transactional and analytical data together in a single platform – Snowflake's Data Cloud.

Until now, organisations were forced to store and use transactional data and analytical data were always kept separately. That’s just how the world worked. Databases were designed specifically for either transactional or analytical data. That’s how the world worked, until now.

Unistore unites these two types of data in one place and writes a new chapter in data history.

What this means for working with data

Traditionally, you had to extract the data you wanted to analyse from transactional databases and move it into a database designed for analytical purposes.

With Unistore, you can do everything directly in Snowflake, benefiting from the simplicity and performance you’re used to. This means you can simplify your architecture, manage fewer systems, and stop copying and moving data around.

The results are faster insights from your transactional data, supported by an advanced and efficient multi-cluster shared data architecture in the Data Cloud.
